I wonder if this tower will have a night time lighting scheme? I noticed 20 Exchange Place has recently begun lighting its crown at night. With the financial district slowly changing into a residential district, it's nice to see the area beautified at night. Now we just need the Woolworth Building to turn its light back on... there's a lucrative penthouse up there now but i'm sure they'll figure something out.

I think 30 Park Place is a decent stand in until Woolworth is lit again.

Barring the rise of 2 WTC, this will be the 2nd tallest for Lower Manhattan. Eclipsing 3 WTC.
I do hope we hear word on 80 South.

Figures
Height: Architectural 339.9 m / 1,115 ft
Height: Occupied 301.8 m / 990 ft
Height: To Tip 339.9 m / 1,115 ft
Floors Above Ground 64
Floors Below Ground 3
Tower GFA 34,526 m² / 371,635 ft²
# of Apartments 205
I should point out that the 1,115 ft height is not to tip, but the height of the roof slab. It rises to 1,127 ft above that, and then the parapet will rise above that height.

Wow, this really looks like a fantastic design! I think between this, 111 W. 57th, Torre Verre, and 9 DeKalb we're finally seeing skyscraper design rediscover a kind of elegance and grace that had been all but lost during the long dark years of high modernism, and that postmodernism only occasionally achieved. Really excited to see it rise!
I agree, we are seeing a return to some great design.

^^^ SHoP seems to be leading the way/raising the bar.
I was thinking that too when I started seeing more designs like this popping up.
